Steps
Tap an underlined word for a quick explanation.
the oven to 450°F and set out a 9-inch oven-safe or pie dish.
Preheat. Preheating means turning the oven on before you start, so it’s fully hot when the food goes in. Food that starts in a cold oven cooks unevenly and doesn’t brown the same.
How you’ll know: The oven beeps or its light clicks off, usually 10 to 15 minutes after you turn it on.
Skillet. A skillet is a frying pan: wide and flat with low, sloped sides. The shape lets steam escape, so food browns instead of stewing.
How you’ll know: It’s the pan you’d fry an egg in, and a 10 or 12 inch one handles most recipes.

Snip each marshmallow in half with kitchen scissors and cover the chocolate with them, cut side down, close together.
Dolly’s tip: Wet the scissors with a little water if the marshmallows start sticking.Bake 5 to 7 minutes, until the marshmallows are puffed and on top.
Golden brown. Golden brown is the color of good toast, somewhere between yellow and light brown. It means the outside is cooked and crisp but not burnt.
How you’ll know: It looks like toast and smells toasty; dark brown with a bitter smell means it went too far.
